Remaining slow, steady, and careful, you move around the desk and let yourself out of the <span class="mu-s">Quartermaster's</span> office and back into the narrow hall, facing the pantry once more. Withdrawing the <span class="mu-s">Small Key</span> that you found, you let yourself inside in order to prepare yourself for what may come next.
You're able to notice that a couple of those bottles of wine have gone missing, and some of the food rations as well, but nothing else seems to have been touched. Perhaps <span class="mu-s">Tetsugo</span> is having a late night celebration to himself for having helped to capture <span class="mu-s">Impa's</span> son. You roll your eyes and smirk, all too happy to ruin the occasion by getting back home. With that in mind, you waste no more time recovering your possessions from the crate in the corner, checking through the ruck sack to see what condition everything is in, and checking under and around it for anything you might miss as well. You gather the following items from the crate, using your pack and waistband to secure them:
<span class="mu-s">Wooden Katana</span>
<span class="mu-s">Tent & Bedroll</span>
<span class="mu-s">Torch</span>
<span class="mu-s">Sheikah Mask</span>
<span class="mu-s">Basic Grappling Hook</span>
The bowl of rice and two boiled eggs you packed in the morning is gone, along with all of your rupees, and even the bouquet of <span class="mu-s">Golden Spider Lilies</span> you gathered on <span class="mu-s">Catacomb Island</span>. Worst of all, the <span class="mu-s">Lens of Truth</span> is nowhere to be found, though you were half expecting as much - it's worth everything in the pantry combined, several times over, and if the legends are to be believed, has been used by a number of <span class="mu-g"><span class="mu-s">Mythic Heroes</span></span> to battle and subdue the forces of darkness.
While it's possible that <span class="mu-s">Tetsugo</span> or <span class="mu-s">Jotaro</span> claimed and kept it when they rescued you from <span class="mu-r"><span class="mu-s">Dead Heart's</span></span> chamber, you don't think that's the case. You eye the locked chest on the floor just to your right, thinking it may be locked inside - something of value is. It's heavy, but you're able to shake it gently with an ear close by... It sounds like a load of rupees, probably including your own, so it feels doubtful the <span class="mu-s">Lens</span> would be nestled inside. More likely that <span class="mu-s">Oshi</span> was correct and the ship's <span class="mu-s">Captain</span> has taken it for himself... You sigh. Couldn't have been that simple, of course, nothing else has been today.
